I want to volunteer as a Facilitator for an existing Club that I'm already connected to. What are the next steps?

That's great that you already know the Club you want to work with! We're excited for you to join the Girls Who Code community.

The process to become a Facilitator at an existing Club is the the same whether you are taking over as the primary Facilitator, or joining as an additional Facilitator to help the Club out:

1. Get the Club CodeContact the past or current Club Facilitator, and ask them for the Club Code. (The Club Code will look something like "CA123"). Each Club Code is unique, and that's what we will use to connect your information to the correct program.

2. Complete the ApplicationOnce you have the Club Code, go to the Clubs Application. (The Application is short; it should not take more than 15 minutes.) Select the option: "I've been invited to facilitate a 2018-19 Club, and I have a Club Code." When prompted, enter the Club Code you were given.

3. Complete the Background CheckDuring the application you'll be asked whether you would like to submit proof of a recent background check, or allow us to conduct one. After you submit the application, you will receive an email from Verified First, either with instructions on how to submit your existing background check, or with a link to begin one.

After the application is complete and the background check has been successfully submitted or completed, you will receive an email from us confirming your participation with Girls Who Code as a Club Facilitator. You will receive access to our learning platform, HQ, our program curricula, a community forum of Facilitators, and more.
